No More Extra Tornado Debris Removal In Century
May 15, 2016
Extra tornado debris removal in Century is over, three months after an EF-3 tornado ripped through the town.
Large dumpsters from Republic Services were placed in the hardest hit areas for debris following the tornado ; those dumpsters have now been removed. The town will resume its normal curbside pickup scheduled of the first and third Tuesday of each month. The next pickup will be this Tuesday, May 17.
On February 15, the Town of Century was struck by an EF-3 tornado that had winds estimated to be up to 155 miles per hour that damaged or totally destroyed 109 structures.
Escambia County agree to pick up the tab for the large dumpster rentals and the rentals of equipment the town did not own for a three month cleanup period, up to $75,000.
